Loadout Guide

Just a fun build that uses Impact Deflection DRAK at mid/close range and the Boltshark to take out long range targets. This build is particularly good on Morkite missions where the tight spaces will get the most out of impact deflection hitting multiple targets.

I picked the Voltaic Stun Sweeper as the grenade for this build because I like that it sort of fits the same vibe as the rest of the build, but all scout grenades can work very well with this build.
